That would mean your phone is in a constant state of broadcasting. Your battery life would be what, 4 hours on most phones? There would not be any stand-by time.

Next time you are in the process of making a call, stand close to a radio that is on.. you will hear your cell phone make interferance on the radio. Now when your call is complete, that interferance stops because you are no longer transmitting. Now if your phone is turned off, they cant even PING it, let alone listen to it.

LMAO!! nice pic^^^ but it is crazy though. They way technology is going who knows whats going to be next.

They already have tracking devices in all of the new US Passports. They're starting to implant devices in children for their 'safety' so that you can find them via GPS if they go missing. It's one step closer to being under constant surveillance from our government. HUZZAH!

Just imagine what they can do with wireless internet. Not that they need it, they are tapped into every internet provider all ready. I think that project name is/was Carnivore and there was one other but I cant remember the name of it.

How does it sacrifice privacy? You don't have to answer it every time it rings.

lol. great pic. I did not have a cell phone in high school. I refused to allow my parents to get me one. I prefered the money. Once I got to college, cell phone the cell phone thing was neat but now it has taken over my life, I rely too much on it.

Mullet, have you had a cellphone before? ....stay away, they are addicting. IMO

I would speak against the government if it would be effective, and if I could get enough people to follow suite, start the war myself... Screw big brother. Rather die in glory and with honor, than live the life of a labrat....

Just before my mother passed in January, my sis called me up on my cell which had I not had one, I would have not had a chance to get to her bed side before passing away...ironically, I still did not make it due to the freaking traffic lights going out and piss poor cops directing traffic, but I do thank my stars that I had one because there was a chance that I could have made it rather than know I was cruising along and not knowing she had went into a comatose state ... paper and pigeons just don't cut it like they used to.
